Save & Protect your PENDRIVE from Conficker

You might hear about the latest computer virus Conficker (aka Downup, Downadup and Kido. If infected it disables many system services like computer Automatic Update, normally difficult to find out), which is widely propagating through networks and USB drives. One of the main causes of virus infection is careless use of pen drives (USB sticks). Because of its auto run feature, virus can easily get in to your system. Here is a freeware zero-configuration program –Ninja designed to protect computers from virus infection through USB pen disks.

Simply download (679Kb) and run it. It sits quietly in the system tray. Whenever a USB pen disk is inserted on the computer, ninja will examine it to uncover the commonly malicious or virulent files known as "autorun.inf" and "ctfmon.exe" amongst many others.

Besides removing known virulent files, this tool will also immunize your pen disk and create a folder called autorun.inf with special protection permissions to protect your pen disk from being infected again when plugged on contaminated computers.

Ninja is fully portable, self-contained and requires no installation and works for Windows XP and Windows Vista.

If you want to run it automatically on Windows start up, right click on the Ninja icon on task bar and click on ‘Add to startup’, so that you need not run it every time you start windows.

Best Web Site Optimization Forums (Part 2)

During hard economic times < http://www.bizcrunch.net/marketing/should-we-panic-from-the-lehman-debacle/ > – like the one we are in right now – many things are cut off from people's budgets. Personal expenses are drastically cut down. Business expenses are not exempt as well. Somehow, people find ways and means by which to lessen spending in order to weather the financial storm.

Why Should I Make a Budget?

You say you know where your money goes and you don’t need it all written down to keep up with it? I issue you this challenge. Keep track of every penny you spend for one month and I do mean every penny. You will be shocked at what the itty-bitty expenses add up to. Take the total you spent on just one unnecessary item for the month, multiply it by 12 for months in a year and multiply the result by 5 to represent 5 years. That is how much you could have saved AND drawn interest on in just five years. That, my friend, is the very reason all of us need a budget. If we can get control of the small expenses that really don’t matter to the overall scheme of our lives, we can enjoy financial success. The little things really do count. Cutting what you spend on lunch from five dollars a day to three dollars a day on every work day in a five day work week saves $10 a week… $40 a month… $480 a year… $2400 in five years….plus interest. See what I mean… it really IS the little things and you still...
